CCSS G.SRT.4 – Prove theorems about triangles. Theorems include: a line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the
other two proportionally; the Pythagorean Theorem proved using triangle similarity.

CCSS G.SRT.5 – Use congruence and similarity criteria for triangles to solve problems and to prove relationships in
geometric figures.
SPI(s) to be taught: (Write the entire SPI)

SPI 3108.4.11 – Use basic theorems about similar and congruent triangles to solve problems.

SPI 3108.4.12 – Solve problems involving congruence, similarity, proportional reasoning and/or scale factor of two similar
figures or solids.

SPI 3108.4.14 – Use properties of right triangles to solve problems.
Daily practice activity for citing text based evidence in conversation and/or writing:

Day 7

Alternate Instructional Interventions: Provide a specific plan for alternate instructional interventions, or re-teaching.

On B days, the end of class will be used to re-address any material with which students show difficulty in understanding.

Students will be allowed to re-take quizzes that they scored poorly on using InteractMath to improve their grade and gain
more exposure to the content.
Instructional technologies to enhance learning: List how each will enhance the effectiveness of the lesson.

InteractMath website will be used for students to improve quiz grades and gain more exposure to the content in a one-onone environment while also giving the students more responsibility over their own learning.

KUTA Software will be used to practice and assess skill-based problems.

PearsonSuccessNet online edition of the textbook will be used to project problems on the board to simplify students seeing
the problems worked out by the teacher.
